Connections Luxury's video: ConnecTALKS: Luxury Travel 2020 Wrap-Up

During this ConnecTALKS, Connections' Commercial Director Greg Reeves is joined by distinguished panellists Dolores Gangotena of Quasar Expeditions; Jacques-Olivier Chauvin of Fauchon Hospitality; Stefano Alberto Ruzza of S Hotels & Resorts Public Company Limited and Vivian Chambers of The Muse Collection. Together, they help us conclude this challenging year of travel, before looking ahead to what we can expect from 2021 and the luxury travel consumer. Here are just a few of the insights shared: • “I am extremely bullish when it comes to our recovery. The vaccine will be a game changer. There is a lot of pent-up demand & there is money to be spent. 2022 will be our best year on record; I feel very positive.” - Vivian Chambers • "Everything ‘local’ is the new marvel. The pandemic has accelerated the use of our local suppliers more than ever, promoting a more sustainable structure amongst our company." - Jacques-Olivier Chauvin, • “Decisions, actions & public relations. As a DMC & family-owned, these were the three things that were vital throughout the pandemic.” - Dolores Gangotena • “Our hotels in the Maldives used the 3 months to optimise & work together with the tourism authorities, the airports & other organisations to open as safely as possible. This was a big objective as Maldives relies heavily on tourism.”- Stefano Alberto Ruzza • “Companies that have re-invented themselves are those who recognise that their greater resource is their people; those who remained active have thrived & will continue to do so in this crisis. There is always opportunity to be successful.” - Vivian Chambers ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUBSCRIBE CONNECTIONS WAY► https://www.youtube.com/c/ConnectionsEvents ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FOLLOW CONNECTIONS WAY: + INSTAGRAM ►https://www.instagram.com/ConnectionsWay + FACEBOOK ► https://www.facebook.com/ConnectionsWay + TWITTER ► https://twitter.com/ConnectionsWay + LINKEDIN ► https://www.linkedin.com/company/ConnectionsWay + WEB ► https://weareconnections.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ENQUIRE FOR NEXT EVENTS ► https://weareconnections.com/about ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONNECTIONS LEADERS TV INTERVIEWS ► https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLq-R_iVGrFmKECEEu3ZD8ZPOWofwPM9zf ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONNECTIONS EVENTS OVERVIEW ► https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epOhB7-b-po ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Video by Connections
